Welcome
Covid 19 Lockdowns have had a big impact on our bookings for 2021 and for all of our touring speakers. Speakers Ink wants to thank each one of our clients and speakers for being so patient whilst we worked through rescheduling and changing bookings.
New 2022 Rates
Speakers Ink has been closely looking at rates for 2022, taking on board the new current standard rates as advertised by the Australian Society of Authors. As such, we can advise that come 1st January, 2022 rates will be increasing (ever so slightly). New standard 2022 rates will be finalised over the coming few weeks.
In keeping with rate rises in the past, any booking that is secured for 2022 prior to the end of 2021, will be locked in as per our current fee structure. Therefore, to beat the price rise, consider your 2022 bookings today!
To make an enquiry, please contact our office.

Please refer to our Touring Speakers Page on our website for up-to-date details for new dates for 2022.
If you are interested in making a booking, please contact our office for assistance.
